What to Wear to Chemo

Photo by Nelson Nelson is back in chemo, so I continue to use the strategy of composing an outfit to wear to go with him to the oncology department.  Taking photos in the exam room before the physician arrives distracts us from the anxiety that builds during this time, especially when waiting for PET scan results.  So many things seem outside of our control, but I can choose what to wear and we can choose to take photos when we're alone in the exam room.  And, we were laughing!

The Hat Twins

Photo by Scott The twins, Nadia and Aidan (Nadia spelled backward), tried on hats at the yard sale.  They were very beautiful, delightful, and polite.   I love to see the younger generation adoring hats and will do all that I can to ensure that milliners have a place in our culture for years to come.  There is a hat for every outfit, except during yoga.

The Style Crone at Mesa Verde

Photo by Nelson. Wearing hat by Diane Harty and jacket from a little shop on Broadway, NYC. Nelson and The Style Crone went to Mesa Verde for our anniversary.  Colorado is beautiful and magnificent, but this national park was magical.  The cliff dwellings were a step back in time and a reminder of ancient civilizations.  SC doesn't usually do casual, but there's an outfit for every adventure.

A Place In The Hat Room

Photo by The Style Crone The beautiful blue beaded cocktail hat immediately found its place in the hat room.  It needed the long neck of the manikin head to showcase and display its details.  And it's now amidst many hat companions!

Welcome to Style Crone

Photo by Neva. Wearing belted coat dress - vintage Victor Costa - estate sale. I was planning to launch Style Crone on my 67th birthday in March, but life happened.  So today I will launch with a photo taken on my 67th birthday!!!  I received three vintage hats from a friend, and this blue beaded cocktail chapeau was my favorite!  My birthday gathering was in a bar/restaurant that was a theatre in a former life; I remember attending performances in that very space in the 70's.   I'm happy that the building is still standing and so am I!
